The Elle – Drifted

Singer-songwriter The ELLE isn’t quite your average sweet-sounding songstress. At the age of 8, she began using various forms of creative writing as an emotional outlet. The talent for writing mixed with an obsession with music and a mellifluous mezzo soprano voice eventually led her to pursue creating and writing music in the summer of 2011. Although she grew up a 90s kid consuming r&b, neo-soul and hip hop, she is largely inspired by classic soul musicians such as Stevie Wonder, Minnie Riperton, Marvin Gaye and Teena Marie. Dedicated to authenticity and thought-provoking lyricism, her unique and creative spin on songwriting aids in transcending her music beyond the confines of contemporary r&b/soul music. She has been performing regularly in Chicago since 2014 and released her first project 5 AM in March 2015.

Feels so damn good, to know somebody loves you back
Dove into ya head first, and now my heart’s attahced

Drifted away, way, way, a way
Away away ay

I cook all your favorite foods
I know just how to make you laugh
You know I got that kinda love
That always keeps your running back
I’ll do whatever it takes
Just to see you smile
Baby when it comes to you
I’ll always go that extra mile

Drifted away, way, way, a way
Away away ay

Oooh, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do
To make me better at loving you
You got me on a high
Clouds drifting in the sky
Oh baby this love just feels so nice and we’re
